The paper collection "Winter's Song" from SEI is still hanging out on my cluttered desk. So here is another card using this cute ornament trio image from Prickley Pear Stamps. I stamped the ornaments three times, embossing with Silver Detail EP and Versamark, on different pattern paper, cutting them out and reassembling the trio together. I added a little shading to get some darker color tones with Copics and also colored in the flowers with a Copic. I added Bling and Pearls to dress them up, and I used my clear Spics to add a little sparkle. I also paper pieced some of the pattern paper over the envelope flap -- the holly images on the DP I used feels like felt. Very cool to touch and feel!

When I set my eyelets I threaded the silver cord "through the eyelet" before I set it -- so it would appear to actually be hanging. I secured the strings at the top with a red brad. To create the multiple score lined frame around the edges of the ornament panel.... I just randomly embossed lines, over and on top of each other using my Scor-Pal.

I did a very similar card using this image a little while back, but I used Copics to color it instead of paper piecing, wanna see it -----> Click here!

Just beautiful Jenny! I actually have used the Spellbinders die that these stamps go with.. but don't have the stamps! Hhhhmmmmm... might need to go shopping! :-) Love the blue and red together -- it just pops!
